Anyone else feeling a RuPaul moment coming on?

We’re reading a lot into clues, like part of the title “Is a Drag” in pink script font plus a head wig on a stand.

It is possibile that “drag” is used in the sense of “bummer” you know; the guy in the chair looks awfully depressed.[/snark]

You know, I completely missed that. I couldn’t figure out what the heck that wig was there for, or why the woman seemed to be climbing up the man’s back. Actually, still can’t figure that last part out.

Her leg is visible behind him through the legs of the chair.

One leg. The other one, or at least her other knee, seems to be resting on his thigh like she’s about to boost herself up.

No, really? Man, it jumped out at me. Of course, I could be COMPLETELY wrong. (Seriously). I mean, my first take was, as Namaan said, “bummer,” right? But…I couldn’t connect the dots.

Then I espied the wig…hmmmm…and I thought of that woman who was featured in the “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil” novel (and appeared as herself in the film), Miss…something. Anyway…now you know how my brain works. (Scared yet?)

The Lady Chablis. I saw her in a drag show years ago, with a bunch of gay friends of mine. It was a blast. So I should have had the same thought as you, because my brain kinda works that way too, but for some reason I was fixated on the knee.

Don’t forget the REALLY exciting parts – it’s a Page Turner from Indigo Sea Press! Never Before In Print!

For something never before in print, it looks terribly 1950.

Terribly is such a multi-purpose adverb <3.

So, what IS she doing to the guy? Is she holding his hand? Her hand over his eyes? I need an explanation to go with this pose.
